Armor-all
That's what i thought but i couldn't remember the outcome of that controversy - I did 2 cds out of boredom and i didn't like the sound anyway - some of the audio press is absolutely ludicrous trying to fill pages. i do use optrix and it solves ski... 
What is the best digital cable?
My only experience is an audioquest dig. pro and my current illuminati and the latter was far superior, it was noticeable the moment I put it in between Meridian trans and dac. 
Any advise to improve my system
Patrick, I'll take a shot. Here's what I'd do starting with the least expensive. Try a mit 2 power cord on your amp, the SR master on my classe makes the soundstage thick, slow and creates a mid bass hump that is distracting. Classe amps are high ... 
Power cord for Sunfire Stereo Signature?
MIT 2 - my prediction is you'll experience a deeper soundstage and the overall presentation will be smoother, better defined bass than stock. High current amps like Spectral and Classe work well with this cord and it is cheap and you can easily se... 
Illuminations D-60 RCA/RCA Survey
Lak, I bought mine when it was still illuminati and my understanding was the name should read left to right at the transport and dac. I've had one for years and it was one of the single biggest upgrades I've made. 
MIT 750 Magnum - opinions please
Hi Snegrah, I've been a satisfied MIT user for years and also, as mentioned above, always have come back. I was using pre-network musiclinks years ago and ventured into other cables while upgrading components for several years. I put the old music... 
Solid state amplifier $2K Used or New
Classe 200 or higher up the line I've been using for aboutn 4 years now - hard to beat the performance and power for the $$$. 
Which IC is more important?
The interface between all components is obviously critical, I think everyone agrees with that - for me the preamp/amp connection is the most critical and I proved it when I did extensive auditioning of cables. I noticed a bigger difference when sw... 
I normally don't ask for help, but.....
Prayers and thoughts.... 
Good SS match for C-J PV10 preamp
CJ is a great mate to Classe, I've run the pv10 with a ca200 and MIT shotgun ic's. 
Your favorite blues album?
The late great John Lee Hooker "Mr. Lucky" 
How did U get into this expensive hobby?
Brain damage that continues to progress... 
old zz top recordings
Great thread - glad I checked it out cause it has definitely saved me some cash. I second a post above the greatest hits disc sounds pretty good. Put on "got me under pressure" after a long day and crank and you won't be mad anymore! 
Power Cord Review
Mit Z II, this cord surprised me on classe amps vs SR master and Eel. 
MIT T- 2 OR BETTERCABLES? FOR SPEAKERS
My opinion is to wire up the entire system with MIT, you don't get the full benefit unless you use speaker cables and ic's from MIT. I've used for years and they are the best I've had in my 2 channel and a/v system.
